LilySlim - Weight loss

Monday, 23 May 2016

It's been one of those crazy days!

I thought that retiring would mean a change of pace - taking it easy etc! No such luck! Today started with the craft group - moved to the morning because of a clash of arrangements. No matter what I tried, I just could not quilt the current project and resorted to free motion quilting after using the seam ripper around 5 times - grrr!

A quick pop home and lunch (more of that later) and it was off out again for a WI committee meeting. As we walked in it was clear that the hostess had gone to some trouble with scones and jam plus biscuits etc. Sadly Monday is a fast day so I resisted. In fact this is the second day of a back to back fast - 2 days without a break. I had "picked" too much on Friday and Saturday and the morning weigh ins were starting to go up - so I wanted to nip it in the bud. A day full of meetings seemed as good as any. I am going to the theatre tonight but have built in enough calories for a small tub of ice cream. Hardly nutritious I know but it's the law isn't it - having an ice cream at the interval - and it isn't a magnum!

Craftwise - I just wanted to show you a picture of my scrappy heart from yesterday.

I also have made a start on my next Lynette Anderson block - I wonder if I can complete this before the next one arrives at the beginning of June!
